Bradley J <[email protected]>:
I'm just guessing here, but is there perhaps an important unmodeled
interaction term with "white" missing from the model? I.e. try
running both models by white and see if the results are similar across
all four models (xtlogit/gllamm, white/not). BTW, how confident are
you that the random intercepts are uncorrelated with X vars?
